Hello All

And once I stripped away the broken fairings:

Couldn't see much wrong with it in first picture.

Looks a bit lame without the plastic Thumbs Down

I think it looks better without the plastic + where the fairings mounted on you can now hang shopping and etc with ease, so it's gained storage space.

Not sure when the MOT was due, it's no longer mine now.

Well, Now when I go to KFC to stuff my fat face, I can buy 3 Wicked Zinger Meals rather than just 2.

Like Paddy I can't really see what was up with it in the first pic. I also recall when it was first released a dealer enthusing about the ultra cheapness of the fairings if someone binned it.

To each their own tho. Pics of the KFC meal holder in use if you decide to fit one Very Happy

That's true, best to get the 7 inch round headlight too, it gives you better presence than the 5 inch. Not to mention 7 inch would most likely be metal and therefore a more powerful bulb would cause no problems regarding heat from said bulb.

See above for the KFC carrying capacity, there's plenty of room for more as well!

Too late, I've got bits of melted-in plastic all over the dam thing now... Oh well, I can use the KFC wet-wipes to tackle this! (also good for exhaust chrome as well)

In-between the forks under the headlight, needed to trim it down to fit though.
